Serifos, just 2 hours and 30 minutes from Piraeus by fast ferry, is a typical Cycladic island with white villages, quiet harbours, golden beaches, bare hills and beautiful landscapes. It is a small island of bare hills, fertile valleys and long, sandy beaches. Chora is the most picturesque spot in Serifos, constructed on the slopes of a mountain and with fabulous view to the Aegean Sea.

Serifos' most recent claim to fame is that one of its beaches, Psili Ammos, was voted as one of Europe's most beautiful beaches in the Sunday Times. The name Psili Ammos means soft fine sand and it is definitely the right one, considering its features. The shallow crystalline waters and the tree-lined shore providing shade, make it a suitable beach for all ages and tastes.

In addition to relishing the 72 fantastic beaches of the island, tourists can go cycling or walking along the seven trails on the island, scuba diving in the old mines or in the WWII wreck, or sightseeing in the fortress-like monastery of Taxiárches, built in the 16th century.

By far the most notable episode in the island's past from mythology, as Perseus and his mother, Danae, were forced to reach the island locked in a trunk. Perseus took revenge on the king of SérifosPolydeuces by killing the mermaid Medusa and by showing her decapitated head to him.

September is maybe the best time of the year in terms of weather conditions and visitors will have the opportunity to experience a typical Cycladic island when the most of the tourists have gone and life has turned to its authentic vibes.
